It’s Time To Spring Clean Your Beauty Tools

March 29, 2023

Cleaning your makeup brushes and other beauty tools is an important step in maintaining their quality and keeping them free from bacteria and dirt. Since spring is synonymous with cleaning, here are some reminders on how to clean your makeup brushes and other beauty tools. —Vita Daily

Clean your brushes regularly: It’s recommended that you clean your makeup brushes at least once a week, especially if you use them every day. This helps to prevent bacteria from building up on the brushes, which can lead to breakouts and other skin irritations.

Use gentle soap or shampoo: When cleaning your makeup brushes, use a gentle soap or shampoo that is free from harsh chemicals. You can also use a special brush cleaner that is designed for makeup brushes.

Rinse thoroughly: Make sure to rinse your brushes thoroughly after washing them. Run them under lukewarm water until the water runs clear, and then gently squeeze out any excess water.

Dry your brushes properly: To dry your brushes, lay them flat on a clean towel or hang them upside down to prevent water from getting into the ferrule (the metal part of the brush). Make sure to let them air dry completely before using them again.

Clean other beauty tools: In addition to cleaning your makeup brushes, it’s also important to clean other beauty tools like eyelash curlers, sponges, and tweezers. Use a gentle soap or cleaner and rinse them thoroughly before letting them air dry.

Replace your tools regularly: Even with regular cleaning, beauty tools will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. Replace your makeup brushes and other tools every six months to a year, depending on how often you use them.
